Artist: Cherish The Ladies
[INTRO]
[C] [G] [C] [G]
[VERSE 1]
Come all ye [D]fair and tender[G] ladies
Take [C]warning [D]how you [Em]court [C]young men
They're [D]like a [G]star on a cloudy [Bm]morning
First they'll ap[C]pear and [G/B]then the[Am]y're gone
[VERSE 2]
They'll tell to [D]you some loving [G]story
They'll [C]swear to [D]you their [Em]love is [C]true
Straight[D]way they'll [G]go and court a[Bm]nother
And that's the [C]love they [G/B]had for [Am]you
[VERSE 3]
Oh, don't you re[D]member our days of [G]courting?
You [C]told me [D]that you [Em]love me the [C]best
You could [D]make me be[G]lieve by the fall of your [Bm]eyes
That the [C]sun rose [G/B]in the [Am]west
[INSTRUMENTAL]
[C] [G] [C] [G] (2x)
[VERSE 4]
If I had [D]known before I [G]courted
That [C]love was [D]such a [Em]kill[C]ing thing
I'd [D]lock my [G]heart in a box of [Bm]golden
And fasten[C] it with a [G/B]silvery[Am] pin
[VERSE 5]
I wish I [D]was a little [G]sparrow
And [C]I had [D]wings and [Em]I could [C]fly
I'd fly [D]right [G]home to my false true [Bm]lover
And when he'd [C]ask, I [G/B]would de[Am]ny
[VERSE 6]
But I am [D]not some little [G]sparrow
And [C]I've no [D]wings and [Em]I can't [C]fly
So I'll [D]stay right [G]here with my grief and [Bm]sorrow
And let my [C]troubles [G/B]pass me [Am]by
[VERSE 7]
Come all ye [D]fair and tender[G] ladies
Take [C]warning [D]how you [Em]court [C]young men
They're [D]like a [G]star on a cloudy [Bm]morning
First they'll ap[C]pear and [G/B]then the[Am]y're gone
